Name and Location
Mizushima – carbon dioxide (CO2) capture project, Okayama prefecture, Japan.
Client
Nippon Ekitan Corporation.
Project Description
The project involves the construction of a CO2 capture unit for new liquefied carbonic acid gas production facilities under construction at Nippon’s Mizushima plant, in Kurashiki.
The facilities being built will use an absorption solvent to separate and capture CO2 from low-density carbonic acid gas generated by Mitsubishi Chemical’s Mizushima plant, where Nippon Ekitan’s Mizushima plant is located, to enable the production of high-quality liquefied carbonic acid gas.
Recovery capacity will be 283 t/d.
Value

Duration
Installation of the CO2 unit is scheduled for October 2017.
Latest Developments
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) will licence its CO2 capture technology to Mitsubishi Chemical Engineering Corporation, which will handle engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of the new liquefied carbonic acid gas production facilities. In addition, MHI will be responsible for the basic design of the CO2 capture unit and supply its core components.
